Abstract

We consider Gabor localization operators $G_{\phi,\Omega}$ defined by two parameters, the generating function $\phi$ of a tight Gabor frame $\{\phi_\lambda\}_{\lambda \in \Lambda}$, parametrized by the elements of a given lattice $\Lambda \subset \Bbb{R}^2$, i.e. a discrete cocompact subgroup of $\Bbb{R}^2$, and a lattice localization domain $\Omega \subset \Bbb{R}^2$ with its boundary consisting of line segments connecting points of $\Lambda$. We find an explicit formula for the boundary form $BF(\phi,\Omega)=\text{A}_\Lambda \lim_{R\rightarrow \infty}\frac{PF(G_{\phi,R\Omega})}{R}$, the normalized limit of the projection functional $PF(G_{\phi,\Omega})=\sum_{i=0}^{\infty}\lambda_i(G_{\phi,\Omega})(1-\lambda_i(G_{\phi,\Omega}))$, where $\lambda_i(G_{\phi,\Omega})$ are the eigenvalues of the localization operators $G_{\phi,\Omega}$ applied to dilated domains $R\Omega$, $R$ is an integer and $\text{A}_\Lambda$ is the area of the fundamental domain of the lattice $\Lambda$.
